Hey all, I guess this makes it official, I am the FNG from Bethany Ok, a suburb of Oklahoma City for those that do not know. I enjoy living here, I am about 100 yards or so off Route 66. I recently (April 2014) purchased my first Goldwing, a 1996 Shinny Pearl Blue Aspencade that now has 108K miles on it, )92K when I purchased it). So far, this is the best bike I have owned.

Thank you all for the warm welcome ! So far I like this forum, and I hope I can offer some decent input to the forum. I have been riding motorcycles for 20 plus years now, owning about 7 different bikes over the years, including my current bike ( '96 Goldwing A). let s see, what else. . . . . I was a member of a 1% TYPE club for 10 yrs, but left because I moved to a state we did not have a chapter and had no desire to open one. lol MOST all of my bikes have been DRESSERS, with the exception of a 1972 XS650, and a 1979 XS1100C, both great bikes, but I am spoiled and prefer my dressers. . . .
I have done about half a dozen QUALIFYING Iron Butt rides ( 1000 in 24 ), but never did the paperwork to make it official. I tend to decide, at the last min to go on my rides, like I will be talking to my brother who lives 350 miles away, and all the sudden will say, lets meet half way for lunch, and away I go, Or I will tell the wife, I am going for a short ride to clear my head after dealing with the kids all day, and next thing I know, I am 200 miles away, trying to decide, do I go farther or turn around and head home. . . lol Fortunately I do not have the income to allow me to do this more than about once a month or my wife might leave me !
Anyway, thats some about me, my riding style, and my riding history, if you care to know more, ask away. . . .

Welcome aboard. If you're that close to Rt 66, you must be right next to my old alma mater - Southern Nazarene University (though it was Bethany Nazarene College "back then"). I was running around that town on my CB350 back in the mid-late 70's.2012 Honda Goldwing | 2009 Timeout Camper
